Looking for that picture...

Can't be any worse than the POS flight academies that require CFI's to wear the "pilot shirt" complete with shoulder bars.

Heeeeeaaay! Watch it or I'll bust an epaulette upside yo head!

Hahaha! That last one cracks me up. Why is his O2 mask up? Does he enjoy rebreathing his own humid exhalations?

Just checking it before his flight, it would be hell if he lost his O2 in the 172.
I'd like to see how his G-Suit works in there as well.

Here you go. A bunch of dorks in silly flight suits standing in front of a very powerful aircraft......a Cessna 172.

Gotta take issue with this one. My kid was in CAP for a while. Got a ride in a C-5, a Huey, a landing craft on the way to a guided tour of an aircraft carrier...lots of stuff.

He was involved with a highly focused and motivated group of kids who were mentored by a highly focused and motivated group of adults. I'd much rather him hang out with these "dorks" than have him hang out with the skate-punks and stoners. And to a 12 year old, a 172 actually IS cool.

I agree the (required) flight suits are dorky, but considering the benefit of this organization to my son in today's environment, I say "Long live the dorks."

What's wrong with riding a skate board?

Skateboarding is not a crime
